Don’t Risk Your Business Reputation

Cybercriminals are getting more inventive. They’re not only locking up production systems and destroying backups—now they are stealing your confidential data. It’s estimated that global ransomware damage will cost $256B* in 2031. Don’t be the next victim.

The Evolutionof Ransomware

1.0 Encrypt Production Data

The Challenge

The first iteration of ransomware targets production data and demands payment in exchange for keys to unlock the encrypted data.

The Solution

To counter ransomware 1.0, organizations need modern backup that rapidly restores data at scale.

2.0 Destroy Backups

The Challenge

To ensure payout, cybercriminals are going beyond the production data. Sophisticated malware targets and destroys backups, leading to longer outages and bigger financial losses.

The Solution

Immutable backups and modern data isolation can protect data against ransomware 2.0.

3.0 Steal Data

The Challenge

Not content with just encrypting production and backup data, cybercriminals are now stealing your data and threatening to expose it on the dark web.

The Solution

Next-gen data management strengthens data security and governance, and offers near real-time detection to minimize the increasing blast radius of ransomware 3.0.

Defense Against Ransomware Attacks

Backup is your last line of defense against sophisticated ransomware attacks. How robust is your backup product?

Start assessment

My backup snapshots are immutable. Ransomware cannot modify or delete my backup data.

My backup system supports at-rest and in-flight data encryption.

pattern

I can enable WORM (write once, read many) for my backup repository.

My backup system offers granular RBAC for stopping unauthorized access.

My backup can detect anomalous behaviors — including potential ransomware attacks — and alert authorized users to investigate.

With a single search, I can locate malicious files across my global data footprint.

To ensure a clean restore, my backup system gives me deep visibility into security vulnerabilities and cyber exposures in backup snapshots.

To reduce downtime, my backup system allows me to restore hundreds of virtual machines and large databases instantly, without relying on custom scripts.

Protection Risk

Sophisticated malware targets backup data. A lack of key capabilities in your backup solution — immutable snapshots, WORM, multifactor authentication, RBAC, and data isolation — are putting your organization at risk.

Your Results

Detection Risk

In the current climate, it’s not a question of if, but when a ransomware attack will happen. Your inability to quickly detect an intrusion allows cybercriminals to further proliferate in your IT production environment, making it harder to recover.

Your Results

Recovery Risk

Downtime from a ransomware attack is costly. The lack of clean data and fast recovery options from ransomware impacts your business operations, revenue, customer experience, partner engagement, and more. You can reduce your risk.
